Hamas expands networks and weapon caches across Europe
European security services have identified growing Hamas networks, including operational cells and weapon caches, across the continent. Authorities in Germany, Austria, and Denmark have conducted raids and arrests related to these activities. German prosecutors have specifically indicted individuals for maintaining weapon stockpiles in countries such as Bulgaria, Denmark, and Poland, consisting of handguns, automatic rifles, and ammunition intended for use against Israeli and Jewish targets.
Intelligence reports suggest Hamas has invested in sleeper structures and logistics within Europe that could be activated as needed. The Israeli Mossad has worked alongside European agencies to warn of these expanding networks. In Norway, discussions continue regarding the group's status and the potential risks of maintaining a policy of dialogue and mediation while such infrastructure grows on European soil.
